 Different approaches to the same problem. Isn't it better to focus on understanding both than to be dogmatic about it? - Greg McKaskle [more] |

Re: Jaguar Meltdown
We experienced this with two of our jaguars in close succession; one of them burned and produced smoke, and had a similar melted plastic piece when we opened it up. The other stopped working just after and produced similar behavior to that of the burned one (running at full speed nonstop, even when the PWM wasn't plugged in), but we haven't opened that one up yet.
Fortunately we still have four working jaguars, so barring another failure we'll be fine. There is a possibility that there could be metal shavings in the jaguar as we drilled holes in the metal board they were mounted to that day, but they were mounted upside down on the bottom of the board, so I find it doubtful that they would have gone into the fan opening. |
